Control of Stimulated Raman Scattering in the Strongly Nonlinear and Kinetic Regime Using Spike Trains of Uneven Duration and Delay: STUD Pulses

Abstract

Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in its strongly nonlinear, kinetic regime is controlled by a technique of deterministic, strong temporal modulation and spatial scrambling of laser speckle patterns, called Spike Trains of Uneven Duration and Delay (STUD pulses) [B. Afeyan and S. H\"uller, Phys. Rev. Lett. (submitted)]. Kinetic simulations show that use of STUD pulses may decrease SRS reflectivity by more than an order of magnitude over random-phase-plate (RPP) or induced-spatial-incoherence (ISI) beams of the same average intensity and comparable bandwidth.
